ICANN 51 in Los Angeles was Baguma's first ICANN Meeting, and as an ICANN Fellow, was one of the first young people in the DRC to attend meetings like ICANN and IGF.[2]
Of what he hopes to accomplish in the future, Baguma says, "My biggest plan is to engage more young people in my country in Internet related topics mainly regarding their online presence. The DRC is a fast growing internet country, so many young people have started using internet. I feel it is time to prepare them on how they can best benefit from the Internet." He is open to all new opportunities that will help young people in the DRC and hopes to engage in constructive discussions.[2]
